@ÉbeIsaac I realise you wanted the answer to look smarter (hey, I'm always in favour of a tidy answer), but maybe in future give gentle nudges to your answerers to guide them towards ways they could improve their answer rather than overriding it yourself - in the process of doing this you've changed JMP's reasoning for one of their responses, presumably to reflect your original intentions; it might have been nice to discuss that difference in opinion in the comments first - just some 'food'(!) for thought. (If this was discussed in comments which have since been deleted, I apologise!) – Stiv Feb 26 '20 at 16:47

No problem, @Stiv, you guessed it right! – Ébe Isaac Feb 26 '20 at 16:52

@ÉbeIsaac Okay. Rubio once made a similar point on one of my answers that had been 'ghost-solved' by the OP in this way - just passing on the advice :) – Stiv Feb 26 '20 at 16:56

1@stiv; it's ok, I don't mind Ebe's edit, mine was close enough: "The best example of this is the bull which is the national animal of Spain. In Spain, bull-fighting is a cultural activity that is widely followed across the country. This popularity has led to the bull being a national animal." (from https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/national-animals-of-european-countries.html), and bullfighting isn't unique to Spain. Ebe probably wanted the answer to match to his question more accurately, but I agree he should have asked first! – JMP Feb 26 '20 at 17:03

Pardon me, @JMP, I’ll keep that in mind next time :) – Ébe Isaac Feb 26 '20 at 17:05
